[@slackjaw703]

Oh no! This video is 37 minutes long! (Grabs coffee and settles in for the most enjoyable 37 minutes of the day).

[@mammodelclub269]

My wife was in town this weekend for business and stopped by to pick up a couple of T-Shirts for me, Thanks for being Hospitable! Skip, Red Mill Model Club in Virginia Beach

[@AndysHobbyHeadquarters]

That’s great I’m glad she stopped by.

[@topoff33]

For a minute there(15:00) it looked like you were seasoning a HUGE Tri-Tip!!! Great Video!!!!

[@andygorman858]

So great to have you back! You could put a Bugatti 35B racecar on that cobblestone and it wouldn’t look out of place!

[@lukakrkic5847]

I am doing a Video marathon of Andy's videos

[@Ronski_]

Wow this is great. I’ve been watching Luke towans videos, so it’s great to see some of his techniques transferred to 1/35 scale. Great work and a very enjoyable video.

[@JohnJones-oy3md]

Beautiful work. You make it look so easy!

[@olebridger]

37 minutes of heaven. Thank you Andy!

[@b_r_i_c_e_.h1794]

I am a beginner in model and thanks to you and your videos I find motivation.

[@kitbi9368]

So sorry to hear of your loss but it's great to have proper Andy back inspiring us all

[@marcelwildeboer]

I love to see more diorama builds from you Andy........damn nice one. I see all off your builds bud always forget to like your builds

[@m1a1abramstank49]

How about a snow diorama in the future?

[@marceldekerpel2268]

Stalingrad

[@jacobkoelzer2008]

Or battle of the bulge. White washing, drifting effects, and snowy trees.

[@marceldekerpel2268]

@@jacobkoelzer2008 i just did a school history project on the Bulge. It went well and was pretty cool to do, as well as the history in the bulge.

[@odenh6471]

Berlin 1945

[@totallyaploy1824]

Maybe the battle with that one kv 2 and 6 panzer divisions

[@redmist1122]

Gotta love using that Sculptie-mold stuff and Modpodge stuff. Excellent how-to on the build. Finally the dio looks super cool with the natural sun light!

[@JohnAdams-qh4zr]

Glad to have you back.

[@patricksteinmetz44]

Andy, I'm sorry to hear about your recent loss. I offer my condolences. On the upside, Wow! What a terrific video tutorial on large scale diorama construction. I'm going to do something on the same scale to highlight some of my WWII armor models and enter it in the Nevada County, California Fair this summer. This video is an invaluable resource. Thank you. Much appreciated.

[@fibrodad1354]

brilliant. Music was a little loud during the peaking sections but brilliant work

[@sb-ant6457]

I love this music, it's so Andy, pleasent, light and airy yet confident and commanding.

[@davidbutterfield2949]

Good to see you back Andy, great diorama 👍🏻🇦🇺

[@donfrandsen7778]

Wow!!! An Andy video i have not seen yet.....got to save this obe!!! Cool stuff!!!!

[@thebobbins1735]

Wonderful piece of work. The only thing I would look to add would be a couple of telegraph poles, and maybe a road-sign, but that's just being picky.

[@rob3609]

Wow museum quality work! Beautiful job

[@peterbutcher2573]

Thanks for showing how to add ripples onto the resin stream. A great help. Thanks Andy.

[@adamk4662]

Great diorama, i think it needs some more small details, wheelbarrows, barrels, garden tools etc

[@jerkerforsberg4721]

Love dioramaas. Great build.

[@gemmumma8354]

dang - 'bout time you came back on. I was going through withdraw and de-Andy-tox.

[@TheHobbyShack]

Greetings from Sweden and thank you Andy for another great inspirational video. Glad to have you back :)

[@ericverpeten4249]

beautiful diorama

[@brucerobinson7295]

Hello Andy welcome back hope every thing is well this diorama has a lot of stories to tell nice attention to detail always enjoy your builds stay the course Bruce

[@johnsamuelson3234]

Andy you’re becoming a real Luke Towan!!

[@xjr13john]

Very nice diorama and useful how to's, thanks

[@AugustusCaesar88]

Absolutely awesome work Andy! Made my day seeing that you’re back in business :) don’t underestimate how much people love and look forward to your videos! You’ve inspired me to try a WW2 aircraft diorama now!

[@bobt3374]

Great Diorama Andy very effective & the stream comes out very realistic.

[@AndysHobbyHeadquarters]

Many thanks

[@lightanddark2673]

Magic work Andy.

[@a.hagemeijer4504]

Three words: Amazing and Beautiful

[@larryscarafile7309]

It's a cold snowy day here in central New York and I was thinking haven't seen one of your videos in a while. And just like that we have a new video. Thanks Andy

[@TheFlatlander440]

Good to have you back Andy. So sorry for your loss. The diorama came out excellent and you can always keep adding to it for different effects. Thanks for sharing.

[@richardklug822]

Thanks, Andy...great to have you back! Have you seen/heard of the acrylic terrain rollers from Green Stuff World? They come in multiple sizes and patterns. You can replicate cobblestones and pavers by pressing, then rolling, the tool into foam sheet or putty. A coating of Mod Podge will harden and lock the pattern in place, ready for painting. Very useful tools!

[@davepearce6359]

Great Video Andy, happy to see you back. To all those know it alls with their offer of advice, please feel free to put up your own instructional videos, as I’m sure you will do such a great job. And the 100,000 or so Andy subscribers will benefit so much from them. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Steve20127]

Fantastic!!!! Well done.

[@Brera011]

Great build. Glad you're back Andy.

[@daviemaclean61]

Welcome back Andy. Don't go breaking yourself in gently! ;-)

[@daviemaclean61]

Great job on the diorama too

[@andyrichardsvideovlogs8835]

Wowww. It really does come to life in natural sunlight 😀

[@oldtown6240]

Sophisticated artistry.

[@SonnySkye]

This looks so good.

[@ScaleModelKitReview]

Great video, good to see your back!! Thanks for show u how to make such an awesome Diorama!! Thumbs Up Always. Cheers

[@evilscience3164]

For a Mediocre Modeler that look's awesome. Bravo.

[@chrisjordan4210]

Great to have you back Andy - like everyone else here, wish you the best. I liked the debris in the stream - I live on Dartmoor in England, it's full of streams and rivers and they always have rocks moving about and bits of tree in them. Maybe one day you could do a diaroma of the US 29th Infantry Division encamped on Dartmoor just before D-Day🤔

[@johnalmerigotti2969]

Excellent work and very enjoyable instructional of how you did it. Your choice of making a versatile diorama was pure genius, with the history of Italy, and the timelessness of the villa, you can swap out vehicles or figures from ancient to modern. Thank you for sharing your work.

[@miketurner4871]

Welcome back Andy! Fantastic work!

[@Mike-mm4mx]

Awesome diorama well done. Look forward to seeing more vehicles on it.

[@garywhaley4040]

Yay! Andy’s back - and with a superb video. Well worth the wait, keep up the good work 👍

[@charlespalavros6952]

Beautiful work

[@ianbrown9108]

Welcome back Andy.That is one heck of a diorama. It's almost as big as the model railway layout I'm working on! Brilliant work on the scenery, looks so realistic with the sunlight on it giving those long shadows.

[@jackvanco6419]

Once again, nicely done

[@odenh6471]

Amazing, just put a few M10s, Easy eights, and M4A3s, and a deuce and a half!

[@marceldekerpel2268]

[@Steve20127]

Excellent.
